Local police stopped when they saw her struggling in the early hours of the morning, when temperatures were hovering around freezing.
After giving her extra clothes, they alerted an ambulance to take her to a nearby hospital.
It was there she was visited by Monsignor Konrad Krajewski who oversees the Vatican's work with the homeless.
He offered her a place for the year at the Vatican-owned residence for mothers and babies in need - it's unknown if the offer was accepted.
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
